MAIR. Five musicians, five individuals. One balls out, kick ass, groove metal band from Glasgow. The music is a mix of simple grooves, tight rhythm, soaring solos and a beat to rival any. While showing respect to the bands that have influenced us (Sabbath, Pantera, Zeppelin), we take ideas from many types and styles of music. This keeps us relevant to both older rock/metal fans, while fresh and inventive to draw in the new. If like us you are tired of all the pretence and ego and just want to listen to good, honest music while rocking out, have a listen. MAIR keep the dream alive \m/

As fans we have watched bands progress through M2TM over the last few years and could only really dream of playng alongside the best of the Scottish scene and we were asked last year to play but unfortunately we could not commit at that point but really set our minds on trying to get a slot on this years run because to us, this is what it's all about - getting people out to support the guys and gals doing it for their passion - music! Securing a slot this year was amazing but we knew it would be a hard slog as there are so many great bands from Scotland we thought that it would take us a few years to even get through the qualifiers - imagine how we feel now! Bloodstock to us is the ultimate metal festival in the UK because it doesn't just book anyone that will sell tickets - the ethos is about community and just having a great time with like-minded people watching cracking bands - this is the ultimate accolade to be invited to play and we wholeheartedly cannot wait to play and also make new friends along the way! Send it on!
